IS ADRENAL FATIGUE AND CHRONIC FATIGE CAUSED BY STRESS? IS IT TMS?

Basically , you freak out about your symptoms which causes more cortisol which then exacerbates the symptoms, then you freak out even more etc etc . I believe cfs is caused by too much cortisol due to being obsessed and freaked out by symptoms
@PainFreeYou3 жыл бұрын
Cortisol may be the mechanism, but it's not the cause. It's TMS - too much stress. If we learn to soothe our bodies and calm our thinking, the whole system can calm down. Here are my suggestions: kzbin.info/www/bejne/aaetmHWkp815qpo

@@PainFreeYou thank again dan ; i am 62, have had a cfs type illness for 40 years : i had an awful childhood and teenage years, and then hep c from heroin addiction . I gave up heroin at 21 and alcohol also and was cured of hep c in 2005. But i am now sure tms has been at root of it, a lot of buried trauma and emotions, i am lucky to be a musician which has been my salvation. My health challenges have definately been too much stress, unfortunately meditation only helps a bit. I am appreciating your videos and thanks for latest link ; it is great work you are doing best wishes

I work as a scientist for public health, not a practitioner, but most physicians don't even believe in adrenal fatigue, unless you have Addison's Disease or other physical adrenal pathology. You will get a diagnosis of adrenal fatigue from alot of quasi-professionals like chiropractors, alternative medicine bandwagoners selling you adrenal supplements. I agree with you Dan, and I think Dr Sarno would have too.

I remember when I did the lightning process brain retraining for chronic fatigue, we didn’t even work specifically on rewiring the fatigue symptom, we just worked on anxiety and catastrophic thoughts etc etc, and the fatigue lifted as a result of that! I remember my practitioner saying she wasn’t worried about the fatigue, and that as I healed and rewired the patterns of anxiety the fatigue would go away. This is a great reminder as I have been struggling more lately due to lots of increased stress. Thankyou for your helpful videos!

The key question is whether or not what they are measuring is the CAUSE of a problem or the result? Perceived Danger is at the root of most symptoms, even what they call adrenal fatigue. (my opinion) I believe with enough messages of safety, the brain will settle and return balance to the body. So, if perceived danger is the cause, safety is the solution. kzbin.info/www/bejne/qp-4Z354dttonMk kzbin.info/www/bejne/e6ucdq1qbrJrf8k

I certainly do find it very difficult to let go of my anger at the developer who bought my late parents' house 4 years ago I suspect because the sale of the family home touched on so many unresolved emotions connected with my relationship with my mom and dad. Lots of high expectations and conflicts. Seems that if something else makes me angry, my anger at him will resurface like it's always just beneath my conscious mind. Quieter now, but it sure has been a struggle to release it. Lots of mental gossip. After all I did get paid! You have to wonder if there is a specific strategy for letting go of such long held grudges short of fisticuffs? Look at them logically and realistically like in a Zen meditation? Such things do seem to take time.

Of course stress is going to be the cause, but does this mean the adrenals cannot be worn down in the process? No. Does that mean supplying the nutrients depeleted in this process and artificially restoring the hormonal balance will not be helpful, if not necessary to break the cycle of the disease? I don't think so either. On the contrary, it clearly seems that the chemical imbabances cause additional stress, thereby making it way harder to break the cycle without support. Of course you need to fix the stress, but what if relaxation techniques and trauma therapy only work to a certain degree and then stop working - if keep being constantly stressed out for no reason? Then you're starting to think past stress took its tall on your capability to handle stress and now the chemical disbalances are perpetuating themselves.

what you described, describes my system. I get tired because my brain seems to think i am danger ( learn that from you). I know as a adult I am not in danger in any way but my brain overrides me. example, I am in sales, for some reason, my brain has associated talking to customers and prospects as danger. I know every sales technique from the last 60 years. I know all about fear of rejection or not be good enough. I have a lot self help books. your pdp was a revelation to me. i have somehow allowed my brain to tag certain situations as danger. when in reality they are not. how do i re-teach the brain and calm my nervous system down. thank you in advance.
@theseventh520420 күн бұрын
You change your response when IN the perceived danger. Instead of stressing out more you notice what your body is doing and send messages of safety, with words and altering your breathing pattern to calm and regulated. Repetition of that rewires your brain to not freak out as you've convinced it that there's no danger.

Many on anti-depressants can and do get well with a TMS approach. I want to clarify, recovery from TMS is not 100% about emotional work. There are several factors that influence chronic pain and symptoms. We need to teach our brain that we are not in danger to eliminate the pain. Just feeling emotions is often not enough.
